Answer:

I can :)

Explanation:

The centerpiece of the Hanukkah celebration is the hanukkiah or menorah, a candelabra that holds nine candles. Eight candles symbolize the number of days that the Temple lantern blazed; the ninth, the shamash, is a helper candle used to light the others. Hanukkah is a celebration of them winning the war of the Maccabees over the larger Syrian army. The story of the miracle, as described in the Talmud, occurred after the liberation of the Temple in Jerusalem during the Maccabean Revolt, and describes how the finding of a jug of pure oil that was to be enough to light the lamp for one day; instead, it lasted for eight days.

thats all I know, hope it helped :)

How did Thomas Edison contribute to the Industrial Revolution?
Veronika [31]

Answer: A. He made electricity less expensive and more readily available.

Explanation: All of the other choices seem way out of line. We all know that Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, relating to electricity. Japan didn't have much to do with the Industrial Revolution. Eli Whitney was the inventor of the Cotton Gin (a machine for separating cotton fibers from seeds). And I'm pretty sure Samuel Slater was the one who brought designs for a textile mill from Great Britain to the United States. The only rational answer would be A.
